Background
Pedagogy
The purpose of communication is to get your message across to others clearly and
unambiguously. Communication is only successful when both the sender and the
receiver understand the same information as a result of the communication. In spite of
the increasing importance placed on communication skills, many extension
functionaries continue to struggle with this, unable to communicate their thoughts and
ideas effectively. This inability makes it nearly impossible for them to compete
effectively in the workplace, and stands in the way of career progression. Likewise in
NARS and KVK system, the extension personnel often seem to focus less on good
management, and more on the glamorous and exciting work of leadership. However,
superiors are responsible for making sure that things are done properly. To be a great
extension professional, one must have an extensive set of skills, from planning and
delegation to communication and motivation.
The course will provide an excellent opportunity to have both theoretical and hands on
experience on communication and management skills to generate desired effect, with
potential to increase the effect of the message. This can bring elicit change, generate
action, create understanding within and among the extension system. The course
delivery strategy consists of a blend of hands-on-exercises, lectures, discussions and
exposure visits. However, the course emphasizes on hands-on-exercises to enable
participants to internalize the knowledge and skills imparted in the training. This might
necessitate extension of the class hours beyond the regular 0930 hours to 1630hours
